need to determine torque required
Back in town. Heres a couple pics. the first is of the tables where we want to convey the scrap off. The conveyor chains would go between the table rolls. We would elevate the chains to higher than the rolls and move perpendicularly off the line till the scrap dropped off. The second pic is...- emzee6

need to determine torque required
I didn't word that very well. The pallet I am describing is actually the heads and tails of steel coils we unwind and cut to length. There are inherent problems with the first and last 10 feet of the coils that we automatically scrap. The idea is to pull them off the line during processing...- emzee6

need to determine torque required
Hey all. You helped me alot on a thermo problem and never formally thanked you, so please consider this it. In the meantime, I need to figure out how to determine the torque required to move a load horizontally with either a hydraulic motor/gearbox or an electric motor/gearbox. I would prefer...- emzee6

Steel Mill Question
The potholes are caused by exactly the reasons you have described, and it is a constant source of conversation regarding how to minimize the problem and still meet production and shipping. That being said, we will be paving the yard one way or the other. The benefits of keeping the dust down...- emzee6

Steel Mill Question
The coils are removed from the upcoiler with a large forklift whaich doesn't have a fork but a long 'snout' which goes into the 'eye' of the coil. Again, they are about 1100 degrees at this time. Within 5 minutes, they are placed on the ground in a coil yard, where we allow them to cool to...- emzee6

Steel Mill Question
Hey guys. Im a new guy here and hope y'all can help out.I work at a steel mill where we cast a slab up to 8 feet wide and then roll it down to as low as 0.187". Then we coil it up into a coil that has a width of 96" and an 'eye' of 30". The OD varies by what the customer wants, and they order...- emzee6
